UPDATED! NO SATURDAY GAME, EITHER The Weekend in Baseball and Flooding

So, as you may have heard, a hurricane is coming that will render all previous civilization obsolete while forcing us to grow gills. Accordingly, it appears the Mets are going to cancel Sunday’s game, and move Saturday’s game to 1:10 PM. UPDATED: The Saturday game has been cancelled as well.

Don’t forget, the Mets have a doubleheader scheduled for 4:10 PM Monday. That is, of course, assuming Hurricane Irene hasn’t ushered in End Times, which would presumably affect the starting rotation. We will keep you posted on all such things.
